His best poems had been written in Italy when he was a gentleman of leisure, a man of fortune—honoured by all who knew him. The last productions of a genius which was at one time great %ere publications scurrilous and discreditable, When one remembers the brilliant successes achieved by Walter Savage Lander in the field of literature, it is melancholy to think of so illustrious a life being closed in a shameful obscurity. liINAHAN'S LL BRANDY.

This company has a staff of surveyors engaged in examin ing the country between Spelling and Horbling, in Lin colnshire, with a view to the construction of a line between those points. SCOTTISH NORTH•EASTERN. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at Aberdeen on Thurslay, Mr Stirling in the chair. The report, an abstract of which nppeared the The Sun, was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN said he had very great pleasure in moving the adoption of the report, because he mght safely say it was a satisfactory one, and this notwithstanding that they had suffered a large loss by the opening of the Highland line from Perth to Inverness. Nevertheless, owing to the prosperity of the district they were able to show an increase in the receipts of about £3,000, while the working expenses were only £1,039 more than for the corresponding half of last year. £2,400 had been expended in the renewal of tires alone—an expenditure which he was sure the shareholders would approve. Upon the general expenses there had been a reduction of upwards of £l,OOO, It was very satisfactory for the directors to be able to offer the shareholders an in creased dividend upon the old Aberdeen stock and on the Scottish Midland stock, and to maintain the dividend upon the Dundee and Arbroath stock. He should feel extremely disappointed if the directors should hereafter be obliged to propose a smaller dividend than that now proposed (Hear.) The report was then adopted, and the dividends recom mended therein were declared, on the Scottish Midland stock, at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum—on the Aber deen stocks, at the rate of 3i per cent,, 6 per cent., and 7 per cent. per annum on the preference shares, and on. the Aberdeen Ordinary Capital Stock at the rate of l rer cent. per annum—on the Scottish North-Eastern Preference Stock, at the rate of 41 per cent. per annum—on the Dun dee and Arbroath Preferential Stock at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum—and on tho Dundee and Arbroath Ordi. nary Steck at the rate of 71 per cent. per annum. Messrs. G. Birnie, A. Davidson, and G. Thompson, jun , were re-elected directors of the company. The meeting was then made special, and it was agreed to purchase a short line of five miles in length to Carmyllie Quarries for £12,000, rails and plants included, from Lord Dalhousie. It was also agreed to subscribe £25,000 to the capital of Cricff and Methven Junction line. A voto of thanks to the chairman and directors concluded ;he proceedings. FORTH AND CLYDE. The report of the directors states that £1,758 had been expended on capital account during the past halt year, chiefly for land and the construction of the Dalmonach branch, which was now neatly completed. The whole of the No. 2 preference shares had been subscribed for, and a consider able amount had been paid up by the chairman and directors in advance of calls, which had enabled the com pany to pay off a portion of the sums due for engines, car riages and workshops, bearing a high rate of interest. This would considerably lighten the interest account for the future. The revenue account showed that £7,556 had been re• ceived for the half-year ending the 31st of July, and £3,822 expended, leaving a balance of £3,734. Out of this was de ducted £1,288 for interest on debentures, and 1850 for interest on bank credits and bills, leaving a balance of £1,596. The revenue account, as compared with that of the corresponding period of last year, showed an increase of £3OO, and a decrease in the working expenses of £398. Out of the clear balance of £1,596 the directors recommended the payment of the half-year's dividend in full on the first preferenCe shares, at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, amounting to £1,391, also the payment of £5O for waggon working and repairs, and that the balance, £155, be carried to the next account. The rolling stock had been kept in efficient repair during the past half-year, and the permanent way had been properly maintained. and was in good condi tion. The traffic from the 31st of July to the 10th inst., being six weeks of the current half-year, showed an increase of £230 as compared with the corresponding perioa of last year, and the directors believed that with careful manage ment, and the development of the traffic from all sources that the proprietors might look forward to better prospects in future. DUMFRIES AND LOCKERBIE. The report of the directors states that the revenue for the six months ending 31st July last amounted to £G,183, of which the sum of £4,313 was traffic receipts. The expendi. ture, including £1,435 for working expenses, had been £4133, having a balance of £2,054, out of which the direc tors recommend a dividend at the rate of 4 per cent., leav ing a balance of £254. KIRKCUDBRIGHT. The half-yearly meeting was held on Friday, Mr Weal. loch in the chair. The report stated that during the five months the line had been open the revenue amounted to £1,407, showing a balance over expenditure of £737, out of which the direc tors recommended no dividend. The working expenses had been £560. The Chairman, in moving the adoption of the report, slid the passenger traffic had fully come up to expectation, and the Glasgow and South-Western Company were tailing measures to develope the goods traffic, which was not so much as had been anticipated. It was proposed to extend the line to the harbour of Kirkcudbright, which would ma terially increase the traffic. Dr Cowan, in seconding the motion, said the directors were endeavouring to secure a regular traffic between Liver pool and Dumfries by way of Kirkcudbright, and had no doubt they would ultimately succeed in doing so. The report was adopted, and the directors were autho rised to apply to Parliament for power to use the Castle Douglas station without running over the Portpatriok Rail way. ROYAL DANISH. The traffic receipts on this line for the month of August amounted to £G,468, and for the same month last year to £3,290, showing an increase of £3,178, GRAND TRUNK OF CANADA. The traffic receipts on this company's line for the week ending tho 3d Sept. inst. amounted for local passengers to £7,026, for foreign passengers to £2,032, for emigrants to £l6B, for mails, &c., to £642, for local freight and live stock to £12,001, and for foreign freight and live stock to £1,173, total, £23,912, against £18,286 for the corresponding week last year, showing an increase of £5,G56. The total receipts from the Ist July to the above date on 1,335 miles of rail- way, amounted to £197,126, and for the BRIM period lasi year to .£166,589, showing an increase of £30,537.

The traffic returns on this company's line for the month of August amounted, on 322 miles, to 4CG,O7d dols., in cluding 310,990 dole. for freight, and 95,077 dole. for pas sengers, The returns averaged 315 dole. pc r mile per week The total receipts from Jan. 1 to the end of August, on 322 miles, amounted to 2,127,713 dols., including 521,903 dols. for passengers, and 1,605,810 dole. for goods, &c, EGYPTIAN COMMERCIAL TRADING, The directors of this company in their report state that for the 12 months ending the 30th June last there was a profit of 517,459, of which £29,632 was made up to the 30th April. Of the £47,459, an interim dividend of 5s 3d per share, declared at the meeting en the 11th July, had ab sorbed £26,250, which, with £2,900 placed on the reserve fund, left £18,309 to be dealt with, After placing the addi tional sum of £1,846 to the reserve fund, the directors re commended a further dividend of 2e Gd per share, free of Naval and Military Intelligence. The Select Ordnance Committee, recently appointed by the Admiralty and the War Department to inspect and report upon the improved systems of day and night tele graphing in military and naval operations, combined or in dependently of each other, have returned to town from the Isle of Wight. Tbey have completed their labours, with the exception of the official presentation of their report. The committee arrived at Portsmouth on Tuesday last from London, and, embarking on board her Majesty's paddle steamer Pigmy, Master Commander Vine, left the same afternoon for Ventnor, Isle of Wight, where they landed, accompanied by Capt. Bolton and Commander Colomb. They proceeded thence to the signal station on St. Cathe rine's Down, near Blackgang Chine. It was to be made the head-quarters of the committee during their stay in the island, and become also the signalling head-quarters during the intended exposition of the results of Capt. Bolton's and Commander Colomb's labours for the information of the committee. The signal station on St. Catherine's Down was under the command of Capt. Bolton, and was furnished with the Holmes magneto-electric light and Captain Bub, ton's field lime light, as supplied to the telegraphic corps of the Royal Engineers for night signalling, and a Vene tian blind shutter apparatus and a set of naval code flags for day signalling. Two men of the Royal Engineer telegraphic corps formed Captain Bolton's staff. Ashy Do an, 71 miles inland from St. Catherine's Down, was another appointed station on the island, and one of the field lime lights for night signalling, wiih a double collapsing cone for day signalling, was stationed there in charge of two men of the Boyal Engineers. At the semaphore tower in Portsmouth dockyard, 141 miles from St. Cathe rine's Down, was placed a non-commissioned officer of the Royal Engineers with two signalmen, in charge of a field limelight for night signalling. Her Majesty's steamer Pigmy was in charge of Commander Colomb, in posi tions out seaward as required, and was fitted with one of the magneto-electric lights (of the same description and power as the one on St. Catherine's Down), a field lime light and a flashing apparatus for night signalling ; a double col lapsing cone and a steam jet for day signalling. In Tire Sun of August 23 we gave a general description of the magneto electric and lime lights, and the means of day signalling by the cone, shutters, and steam jet. It is therefore only ne cessary on this occasion to draw attention to the fact that Capt. Bolton and Commander Colomb's system of signal ling may be said to be based on the " Morse" systems of telegraphy, the long and short dashes in the printing of the "Morse" message being efficiently and simply represented in the Colomb-Bolton system ,blryetnheetilaenngshthutotefrst,iomreaniny exhibited by day, or by the length of other rh dark the double object collapsing l e a x p h sg on time in which the magneto-electric and field limo lights on shore, or the plain flushed lamp at sea, are exhibited by night. Colours are totally discarded in these signals, for the reason that a plain white light by night will transmit its message to a much greater distance than any coloured light possibly can do, at the same time that the apparatus is simplified by the use of one kind of light only to a minimum point; and a dark, opaque, such as the collapsing cone or shutter apparatus, are preferable, for the same reasons, to coloured flags by day. The steam jet signals remain to be noticed. The efficiency of this mode of communication from a vessel atsea to a headland on the coast was discovered in a curious manner. One day during the recent experiments which have been carried out between Captain Bolton, on St. Catherine's Down, and Commander Colomb, on board the Pigmy out at sea, communication from the Pigmy became very difficult owing to the distance from the land and the peculiar state of the atmosphere. The hull of the Pigmy could just be discovered at sea from the Down; but it was quite impossible to distinguish masts or yards, and there fore equally impossible to read any signal by the cone. While she was being watched as she lay thus by Captain Bolton and his party on the Down, three or four white dashes (thrown off steam) of different lengths, stood out most prominently over the steamer's hull, against the dark horizon in the background. These white dashes, or escaped lengths of stea.D, furnished the hint for the steamjet signal, A. steam vessel lying so far off from the land that, l.ko the Pigmy, her ordinary mode of day signalling would be use- less, can, by throwing of jets of steam, print ff her mes sage in long and short dashes against the darker background over the horizm as certainly and as legibly as the electric instrument on shore prints off its dots and dashes on its paper riband or tape. On Wednesday morning, the day succeeding the arrival of the committee at St. Catherine's, thsy were employed in discussing the reports handed in by Captain Bolton and Connahrider Colomb, with which they expressed the greatest satief lotion. On the afternoon of the arras day her Majesty's ship Pigtn3' proceeded to sea, and when four miles off St. Catherine's commenced steaming out slowly from off the laud and signalling to the committee on St. Catherine's down with ordinary naval flags. At 61 miles distance the fl igs failed altogether, being then at too great a distance to be distinguishable from the Down, and signalling was then commenced with the flashing system, the shutter apparatus, the double collapsing cone, and Amin jets. It was kept up f or some ti m e at an average distance of seven miles, and a l ways at a g reater speed than that gained by naval flag s a t one-th i r d the distance. On Wed nesday evening ni g ht s i gnalling was commenced between the down and the Pigmy, 12 miles at sea , w ith the lime light, and was conti nued at a gre at speed up to the 14 miles' distance, w h en the magne t o -electric light was brought into play, and continued the signalling up to 17 miles, Messages were also forwar d e d direct to Portsmouth dockyard, and answ ers received i n r eturn, and also to the station on Ash-do wn ; but the most interes tin g p ortion of the signalling wa s b etween t h e bold headland of St. Catherine's and th e P igmy, ou t in the Channel. On Thursday the co mm i ttee were e mployed in carrying out experiments in field signals with Captains Bolton and at will, by day and b night, betty t Colom'a's apparatus, an d rap y id com munication was kept up two miles distant from each other. This concluded the ex periments, and the com m i ttee expre ssed their warm approval with all that had been su b m i tte d to them for examination. wo moving partie It is undirstood that immediate measures will now be taken, on the recommendation of the committee, to introduce per manently the combined Colomb-Bolton system into the army and navy as the sign a l code for both services f u ture operations by l an d or b y s ea, whether conjunction with each oth er . singly i e n r all n i In the article on Nav a l an d Military Telegraphy which a ppeared in The Sun of A ug . 23 it was stated that " the lime light is now suppli e d t o eve ry ship in the Channel fleet for night signalling."

PETERSBURG, Sept. 22. A rescript of the Emperor Alexander to Count Berg has been published here, together with five decrees, initieUng extensive educational reforms in Poland. As briefly stated by telegraph, the decrees order the establishment of a university in Warsaw, with a large number of superior, middle-class, and elementary schools, and a flee school for girls. Polish is to be the language in which instruction is imparts d to Poles, while special schools (Russian, German, See.) will be opened for the other nationalities of the kingdom. A sixth decree moderates the penalties of t he criminal code and abolishes corporal pueishment. The rescript introducing the decrees is as follows : " Deeming it indispensable for the progress of the restoration of order in the kingdom of Poland to continue and develop the organic reforms the bases of which were laid down by the ukase of the 19th February (March 2), in the firm determina tion of maintaining the same, I desire that these reforms may be carried out with unshaken persevee ranee, since it is not possible to secure a regular and enduring development of the country without a thorough rejuvenation of its social life. With this object I have devoted especial care to the improve ment of the system of public instruction throughout the kingdom. No branch of Governmental activity demands in an equal degree such continued exer tions as this question of public instruction ; wherein it is not until a later generation chat the healthy seed ripens and bears fruit. For this pure pose I find it necessary to employ the first days of re-established tranquillity once more in un. dertaking with renewed attention the task of alter ing and amending the system of public instruction, which has already commenced, but has also been interrupted by the late disturbances. The general regulations sanctioned by me on the Bth (20th) May designate moral and religious instruction as the basis of all educational establishments. By these regulations classical instruction is appointed espe cially for the high schools, without, however, abolishing the study of special branches of learning. Entrance to all the educational establishments is granted to all classes of society, 'without reference to their social position or religious creed ; and the number of the high and middle schools is con siderably increased, since to most of them a suffi cient means of existence is assured. These bases of the regulation of 1862 must in future be faithfully upheld. While I accept them as au unalterable point of departure, I find it necessary to order the following in reference to their further extension. " 1. In view of the new situation in which the rural population are now placed in an economical and administrative point of view, it is urgently De. cessary to disseminate and establish primary instruc , tion among them. On in this wise will they be enabled to enjoy all the advantages of the new legis elation, and at the same time to form a powerful support for the maintenance of peace and the pre servation of social order. Having perceived with real satisfaction, from the reports sent in to me, that almost the whole of the population clearly r,:cog nises the necessity of instruction, with confidence I entrust to the latest formed communes the task of increasing the number of schools and also of providing them with the requisite means, and those officials and others who are more particularly con nected with the matter I order to devote their hest energies to its furtherance. "Owing to their personal co-operation, it is to be hoped that in a short space of time a sufficient number of schools will epring up and be formed, and thus efface one of the most lamentable defects in the former educational rystem of Poland. "2. Hitherto tho education of women has been the sub ect of a few isolated measures and imperfect attempts on the part of the Government, It will, therefore, non. be necessary to adopt a general system corresponding to the wants of the different social classes, since the moral and spiritual education of women is the best guarantee for the regular culture of future generations. As in ibis as well as in the other branches of public education I intend to take energetic, but at the same time judicious and progressiv4 measures, I consider it necessary to commence at once by the foundation of day-schaols fur young girls in the most important towns of the kingdom, similar to those hchOols which alrea•ly exist in lltus3ia and in Warsaw, and which are found to be so beneficial. "3. While the public educational establishments, and more especially the high and middle-class schools, are orga nised by the Government, endeavours will particularly be made to inculcate healthy views among youth, and to de velop a love for labour and for wise and solid instruction. The authorities, without terrnitting themselves or others to turn the hells of sc'ence into political clubs, must only keep in view the uuselfiAh service of civilisation. They must constantly be engaged in improving public instruction in Poland, and in raisit g the standard of education. "4. To this end, while offering the means of being in strutted in the national language to the Polish youth,we must also recollect that the population of the kingdom composed of different races and religions. Each of these must be protected against every attempt at oppression, and to carry out this it is before all things foundnecessaryto. schools for each nationality, and besides thi s t o establish that in the common, and especially in the primary schools, language the instruction shall be given in the of the or ma jority, i.e., either Polish, Russ,Lithuanian, accordin g to the locality and nationality of it s inhabitants. The mis sion of Russia in Poland must b e fulfilled by observing perfect impartiality towards a ll those elements of which the population of the country is composed, " Grounded on these gen era l principles, have this day signed orders that regulati ons f or the following 'objects be drawn up. 1. For the primary schools in the kingdom of Poland, 2. For the f e m a l e gymnas i a an d the p'eliiainary gym gymnasia in the same ki ng d om . 3. For the Russian gym nasium in Warsaw. 4. For the German school of the Evan gelical doctrine in Warsaw. 5. For the organisation of the school directorate. Thus while I commission you with the execution of this:ukase, I am certain that by the measures you will adopt for that purpose, and especially by the choice of experienced and conscientious men, you will exactly and completely carry out my views. The people's school I en trust to the especial care of the organisation committee of the kingdom. At the same time I request that so soon as possible they may lay before me propositions in accordance with the above rules for the further development and alte ration of all the high and middle-class schools throughout the kingdom. For this purpose I deem it necessary to give them the following instructions :-1. The elementary agri cultural schools shall be reorganised in accordance with my ukase of the 19th February 1864 (2d March), and also with th a t sanctioned by this day. 2. A curriculum of in struction shall be introduced at: the primary schools, and oue or more of those curricula shall be specially for the Russian or the Lithuanian population ; and farther, the best means shall be sought out whereby teachers shall be educated for the higher schools. 3. The special district shools shall be altered into gymnasia with seven classes ; the general district schools to become preliminary gym nasia, the ono for the study of practical learning, the other for classical knowledge. 4. The Lyceum at Lublin is to be converted into a gymnasium, where the course of study shall be of an essentially classical nature. This shall also be the case in all Polish gymnasia. 5. A proposition for the conversion of the high school at War saw into a university shall, so soon as be possible, be drawn up and handed in, wherein the best means of preserving the rights and privileges belonging to a Russian university shall be stated, and with due regard to the local demands. G. Lastly, the definitive establishment of the institute in War saw, " Alexander and Marie," for girls, shall at once be taken in hand, as well as the special schools already exist ing, or those in process of formation, such as the agricul tural and the forest school, in accordance with instructions hereafter to be issued. " I offer, therefore, to all the inhabitants of the kingdom, without reference to their station, their origin, or their re ligion, the means of imparting to the new generation a good and solid education; and I hope that the fructifying ac tivity of study may preserve the Polish youth from at tempting those senseless and foolhardy attempts which have not only caused so much unhappiness, but have also until now prevented the improvement and advancement of the whole country."

The National Polish Government has recently addressed the following prcclamation to the na tion : "After nineteen months of desperate straggle against all the power of lassie, assisted by her ac complices in the murder of Poland, and encouraged by the indifference of the West, our insurrection is weakened and our ranks are thinned. " Over the tombs of 50,000 heroes slain in battle. along roads furrowed by the wheels of the hibithas• which have borne 100,000 of our martyrs to Siberian snows, above the ruins of thousands of burnt towns and villages, the invader intones a hymn of triumph and redoubles his barbarian rage. He intones a perfidious and a lying hymn, the chorus of which is applauded by the accomplices of Russia, conspiring for our fall, who all repeat, ' The struggle is ended, and Poland is no more !' "In this terrible and supreme moment, we, the Government, strong in our faith in the power, the rights, and the future of the nation, full of confi. deuce in its devotion, feel it our duty to raise our voices to you, the Polish people, to refute and con-. found those who desire to make you again descend into the tomb—to unveil to you, without shrinking, your most hideous scars—to bring you face to face with the faults that have been committed—to show you the still untouched elements of your strength-- to mark out for you the road along which the Na tional Government—the faithful guardian of your imprescriptible rights—has resolved to guide you, and at the end of which are independence, liberty, equality, and fraternity. _ _ _ "In taking up arms upon the 22d of January 1863, Poland neither reckoned upon foreign assist , ante nor upon diplomatic measures which should not be supported by any effective force. " The nation knew that its right and its duty is to be independent. It felt that there is no power in the world capable of riveting 40 millions of arms in eternal chains. The nation had faith in its own strength, and it arose. " The first act of the national authorities was to restore to the people its own property, and by that act the Government at once showed the source whence the insurrection ought above all to derive its strength and its resources. But before the in surrection, unprovided with arms, had succeeded in developing itself, before it was able to bring into action the masses which burned to enter the lists, those who had first given the signal for the contest were no longer in existence to direct it. "For the spirit of devotion and the burning faith of these heroes and martyrs, their successors substi tuted wretched expedients to make head against the enemy and direct the insurrection. They doubted the power of a nation of 20 millions of men—they doubted the patriotism of the Polish people " The insurrection was changed into an armed demonstration ; the nation was asked to expend its property and to shed its blood with the sole object of bringing about and obtaining foreign interven tion by force of pity. " Then began that singular direction for which it would be difficult to find any other explanation. Every hops and every plan was based upon the intervention of the West, upon the fantastic alliance of the perfidious of our neighbours, who, by bring ing forward the six points, was to negotiate 'with the Czar, not the liberty of the country, but a partial and monstrous autonomy, in which it would have been equally impossible for the nation, to live and to die. "Within the country the conflict degenerated into a struggle deprived of plan and aim, prolonged from day to day, abandoned to individual efforts, without the intention or desire of transforming it into a great and powerful national war, as it it had been desired to convict the - nation' of itripottineo, btetuse its real force was not believed in. " The e.ct of the 22d January soon became nothing more than a vague and illusory hop., either because it was not known hocv, or because it was not desired t) call to arms all the people of Pinsk, following the traditions of our ancestors. Now, the Musco vites are transporting this same people by thou sands to Siberia. Either our leaders did not know, or they did not dare to ask, of the people the sacri fices required for a great national war which should decide upon its life or death, and now the Musco vite is ruining it and wresting from it millions. 'They did not believe in the people ; they distrusted the people. The fault was terrible. And yet the people have repalsed the treacherous favours of the Czar, and wait only for direction and command. " Men with sinister voices would like to persuade the nation that it is crushed and annihilated ! Let them look at the gibbets upon which the corpses of fcesh martyrs to liberty are suspended daily ; let them look at the tombs, whose numbers every day increase, which testify to the self-styled domination of the oppressor; let them say the struggle is at an end ! " People of Poland, the struggle cannot cease. To as k pardon of the Czar would be infamy and base ness of which you are not capable. "The struggle must continue because the Czar has sworn to exterminate our nationality, our religion, and languege. The more our arms are humbled the snore the Muscovite redoubles his rage. No war could cost us as many victims as the interruption of the conflict. The Czar does not make war; it is the annihilation of our indomitable nation he pursues in his insensate fury. "Death upon the field of battle and liberty —were it only for our children—or death upon the gibbet, a slow agony in the Siberian snows and misery in exile ; this is the choice which remains. " We have suffered great losses, endured great sorrows ; but the work of redemption can only be accomplished by great sacrifices. On the other hand, we have grown in heart and in soul ; we have acquired experience, we know henceforth whence arises impotence, whence strength. The groans of onr sisters and mothers beaten by our executioners, the tears of our brothers dragged indiscriminately into eternal exile, the creaking of the gibbets which bend under the weight cf the corpses of the noblest sons of Poland, resound in the ears and in the heart of the nation like the trumpet calling to battle, des. perate battle, battle for life and death ! "He who wishes repose and remains deaf to the call is infamous or a traitor ! But you, 0 Polish people I you hear and you will rise ; you must rise for the final combat, and the day when the Polish nation rises in its might victory will be secure. "In this difficult satiation the National Govern ment only sees a period of transition ; the second portion of the war is about to commence—the popular war. To fulfil its mission it will display all its resources, it will recoil before nothing, it will neglect nothing ; and this is, consequently, its admi nistrative duty. It will not hesitate nor slacken in this course, and woe to those who shall dare to op pose it ! " In applying all its e forts to the accomplishment of its task, the Government only reckons upon the forces of the nation, but it will accept the fratelual support and the sympathies of the peoples. " Tie Holy Alliance of despots and civilisation, the old rule of brute force, and the eternal right of humanity are now face to face. Polish pe ople, you who were foremost in the breach for def ence clehrs• o . tianity, are now once more the first to avenge the rights of humanity and of liberty, outrageously violated in you. Your mission comes from pomeiGo3dle: your salvation is in your own hands.

It is across your ruins, your fragments, Russia desires to march to the conquest of Europe. But you will not perish; persev,ere, therefore, and be of good heart."

In 1808 Mr Lander topk part in the Spanish insurrec tion against Napoleon, and he was the first Englishman who went to the assistance of the Spanish patriots. Ho raised a body of troops at his own expense, conducted them from Corunna to Aguilar (the headquarters of Gen. Blake, viceroy of Galicia), presented 20,00) reals to the cause, and was appointed colonel in the Spanish army for his liberality. He resigned his commission on the restoration of King Ferdinand and the subversion of the constitution framed by the Spaniards during their struggle for independence. Ile declared that, " although he was willing to aid the Spanish people in the assertion of their liberties against tho'antago nist of Europe, he would have nothing to do with a per jurer and a traitor." Mr Landor's reputation was made by ~r Gebir," which he published at the age of twenty-three. Southey, as is well known, thought most highly of it, and spoke as he thought. In 1815 Mr Landor (who liar de Malaperte, a daughter of the Baron de Nitalveville, a descendant and representative of the nobleman of- that name who had been first gentleman of the bedchamber to Charles VIII.) resided in Italy, occupying first the Medici Palace at Florence, and, secondly, a villa and gardens which he had purchased of Count Gherardesce, at Fiesole. At Pisa, in 1820, Mr Landor produced his " Idyllia Heroica," with an appendix in Latin prose on the reasons why the modern Latin poets were not generally read by scholars. From 1824 to 1829 he delighted English society with his " Imaginary Conversations"—classical, scholarly, and tasteful papers. In 1831 appeared "Count Julian, and other Poems." Ralph Waldo Emerson, who visited London about this time, has given a characteristic description of him. "I had inferred," he says, "from his books, or magnified from some anecdotes, an impression of Achillean wrath, an un tameable petulance. Ido not know whether the imputa tion was just or not, but certainly en this day his courtesy veiled that haughty mind, and he was the most patient and gentle et hosts. Ile carries to its height the love of freak, which the English delight to indulge in, as if to signalise their commanding freedom. He has a wonderful brain , despotic,violent, inexhaustible, meant for a soldier—by what hence converted to letters, in which there is not a style or tint unknown to him." Southey says of Landor—" That I have obtained his approbation as a poet, and preserved his friendship as a man, will be remembered among the hon ours of my lire when the petty enmities are forgotten, and ephemeral reputations have passed away. Landor's Eng lish has been strangely undervalued, sometimes savagely attacked in reviews; but year after year scholars must go to Landor for a multitude of elegant sentences, for wisdom, wit, and indignation unforgetable." In 1836 Mr Landor published "Pericles and Aspasia," " Satire on Satirists and Admonition to DatractOrs," and " Letters of a Conservative, in which are shown the only means of Saving what are left of the English Church ;" in 1837 appeared " Pentanaeron and Pentalogia ;" in 1839, " Aadres of Hungary and Giovanna of Naples ;" in 1848, " Hellenics ;" in 1851, " Popery, British and Foreign ;" in 1853, " Last Fruit from an Old Tree." Walter Savage Landor was a man of high genius, but an irritable, cantankerous, impetuous person—" genus irrita bile vatum." Tom Moore, in 1838, wrote of him, "Savage Lander is a very different man from what I expected to find. He has all the air and laugh of a hearty country gentleman —a gios rejoui—and whereas his writings had given me rather a disrelish to the man, I shall take more readily now to his writings from having seen the man." Landor was one of the most eminent scholars in Europe ; even at Rugby he was too clever to remain in the school as a boy; his scholarship was of the highest class, and even to his later years his fine limnau hand " could ba discovered in Latin epigrams and poems innumerable in a well known weekly paper.

The independent Prussian press is daily showing greater interest in this trio', aud the rolhszeitung is publishing a series of articles on the subject. In its number of the 15th inst. it points out the baselessness of the assumption of the prosecution, that "the ultimate object of the strugglo with Russia was the seizure of the province of Posen from Prussia," no proof whatever having, as yet, been brought forward of such having been the case, and the participation of the people of Posen in the Polish insurrection being as intelligible as that of the people of England in Garibaldi a Neapolitan campaign, or that of Germans in the liberation of Schleswig-Holstein. Great hopes were entertained, during the past week, that the majority of the accused would be liberated, but the persistence of the prosecution and the Court in prolonging the proceedings to the utmost possible limit in every case renders it probable that many months will yet elapse before the trial is ended. The sitting of the 14th inst. was occupied by the exami nation of witnesses in the cases of M. Koszutski, the Rev. S. Rymarkiewicz, and Dr. Nicklewaki. Some Prussian soldiers stated that M. Kosvutski had endeavoured to per suade them to join the insurgents, and had sent arms to the frontier, but they appeared doubtful of his identity. M. Elven then proposed that he should be liberated, but the proposal was rejected on the ground that his case was con nected with that of another prisoner named Szezanieckf. The Rev. S. Rymarkiewiez, accused of having been an active member of the Polish party of agitation, was then examined. He denied having had anything to do with political matters, as also did Dr. Niklewski, who, however, admitted that ho had wished to give the insurgents medical aid, which he heard they had been much in want of. The witnesses wore then called, and all stated to the president that they had never been sentenced by a court of justice. M. Elven, however, proved that one of them had been four weeks in prison for thOt, and submitted that his evidence be rejected. The president said the Court would decide, but begged M. Elven not to take the Court by surprise in this manner. M. Elven rejoined that often he could not prove the untrustworthiness of a witness except by convict ing him of a falsehood before the Court. . _ Radomski, a gardener, then stated that it had been said in societies at which the priest Rymarkiewicz was present, that the Prussians would be attacked after the Russians had been conquered. He also said ho had seen the priest go to Slaboszewo on the 16th April last, the day on which the insurgent expedition left. On the 16th inst. the hearing of witnesses in this case was continued. A man-servant, named Roczak, and a woman named Nankowska, deposed that they had seen the priest Rymarkiewicz on his estate during the whole of the day of the 15th April, so that he could not have gone to Slaboszewo. Messrs Elven and Lent then proposed the liberation of the priest Rymarkiewicz, Dr Niklewski, and the merchant Zapalowski, of Posen, accused of having sold gunpowder to M. Zorawski. The Court allowed the liberation of Dr Niklewski, but postponed that of the others. The case of M. S. de Szezaniecki then came on. He ac knowledged that he had acted as president of a savings bank, which he considered an institution of great value to the prosperity of the country, and incompatible with a time of insurrection ; but he belonged to no political society, and had not received any appointment as commissioner. The reports and other documents put in by the prosecution were not in his handwriting. M. Lewald proposed that the accused should be liberated. The Court reserved its decision. M. L.;de Szezaniecki, brother of the above, was next examined, He denied having acted in any capacity in the insurrection, and expressed his regret that illness did not permit him to do so. He had no knowledge whatever of a ny designs against Prussia. He had bought 12 saddles, but they were for his own men, not for the insurgents. Lewald moved the liberation of the prisoner. The Court decided that both M. S. de Szezanieeki and. his brother were to be still dotained, and then adjourned to the 19th inst. MR. GLADSTONE IN EDINBURGIL—TiIO Chan cellor of the Exchequer arrived in Edinburgh from Penmaen-Mawr on Friday night on his way to relieve Earl Russell in attendance upon the Queen at Balmoral. He remained in Edinburgh until next (Saturday) evening, and was the guest of Dean Ramsay.
